This study was designed to investigate the effects of treadmill exercise of low-intensity and moderate- intensity on the functional recovery and histological change in spinal cord injury (SCI) rats. SCI was induced by the spinal cord impactor dropped after laminectomy. Experimental groups were divided into the Group I (normal control), Group II (non-treatment after SCI induction), Group III (low-intensity treadmill exercise after SCI induction), Group IV (moderate-intensity treadmill exercise after SCI induction). After operation, rats were tested at modified Tarlov scale at 2 days with divided into 4 groups, and motor behavior test (BBB locomotor rating scale, Grid walk test) was examined at 3, 7, 14, and 21 days. For the observation of damage change and size of the organized surface in spinal cord, histopathological studies were performed at 21 days by H & E, and BDNF(brain-derived neutrophic factor) & Trk-b immunohistochemistry studies were performed at 1, 3, 7, 14, 21 days. According to the results, treadmill exercise can play a role in facilitating recovery of locomotion following spinal cord injury. Specially, moderate-intensity treadmill exercise after SCI induction was most improvement in functional recovery and histological change.

The suitable temperature and salinity for the long-distance transportation for the rockfish were investigated by assessing survival rate, metabolism, histological change. All experimental groups showed survival rates of 100%. Daily Oxygen consumption rhythm was decreased during nights and increased during days. Average oxygen consumption was significantly decreased as temperature and salinity were decreased. Ammonia excretion was significantly increased as temperature and salinity were decreased. Histological changes were observed in the skin and gill of the rockfish exposed to 10 psu under all the temperature conditions, with larger changes at $4^{\circ}C$. Further, nucleus deformation and uniformity in the cytoplasm were also observed.

This study was designed to investigate the effect of treadmill exercise of low-intensity and high-intensity on the functional recovery and histological change in spinal cord injury rats. Sprague-Dawley rats were experimented(n=15) for this research. Spinal cord injury was induced by the NYU drop impacter device after laminectomy. After operation, rats were test at modified Tarlov scale at 3 days, and divided into the control group(n=5), experimental group I(n=5, low-intensity treadmill) and experimental group II(n=5, high-intensity treadmill). The rats were disciplined from 7 day through 21 day. Functional recovery was evaluated by the BBB scales and the Grid Walk test for the progressive locomotor recovery at 3, 7, 14, 21 days. Histopathological studies for the muscle in order to observation the change of damage and size of the organized surface which is visible visually it executed hematoxylin & eosin stain. According to the result of 4 weeks of treadmill exercise, group II showed improvement than group I of motor behavior after spinal cord injury.

The purpose of this study was to know the effect of aquatic-exercise on muscle atrophy which induced by steroid injection. The forty-eight Sparague-Dawley adult male rats were assigned to the 4 groups; GroupI(distilled water injection), GroupII(steroid injection), GroupIII(distilled water injection and aquatic exercise), GroupIV(steroid injection and aquatic exercise). We observed their body weight, histological change by PAS stein. The results of this study were as follows; 1. After 2 weeks, the change of weights appeared that non-steroid injection groups increase weight and steroid injection groups decreased weight hasty. after 4 weeks, weights recovered from weight before test. It was possible to explain the change of weight by type II muscle fiber increase. 2. In histological change of muscle fibers, atrophy didn't observed in test group I, because type II muscle fibers were developed well. we observed not only injury of muscle fiber and muscle atrophy but specifically grouping type I muscle fiber in test group II. normal arrangement of muscle fibers were visible in test group and type II muscle fibers increased. we could observe muscle recovery because of type II muscle fibers increase in test group IV. therefore, it was seem that type II cell was recovering through aquatic exercise.

To determine the magnetic resonance (MR) imaging findings and natural history of cerebral fat embolism in a cat model, and to correlate the MR imaging and histologic fmdings. Intemel carotid artery of 11 cats was injected with 0.1 ml of triolein. T2-weighted, T1-weighted and Gd-enhanced T1-weighted images were obtained serially for 2 hours, 1 days, 4 days, 1 week, 2 weeks and 3 weeks after embolization. Any abnormal signal intensity was evaluated. After MR imaging at 3 weeks, brain tissue was obtained for light microscopic (LM) examination using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and Luxol fast blue staining, and for electron microscopic examination. The LM examination with HE staining revealed normal histological findings in the greater part of an embolized lesion. Cystic change was observed in the gray matter of 8 cats, while in the gray and white matter of 3 cats. At LM examination, Luxol fast blue, staining demonstrated demyelination around the cystic change occurring in the white matter, and EM examination of the embolized cortex revealed sporadic intracapillary fat vacuoles (n=11) and disruption of the blood-brain barrier (n=4). Most lesions were normal, however, and perivascular interstitial edema and cellular swelling were mild compared with the control side. The greater part of an embolized lesion showed reversible findings at MR and histological examination. Irreversible focal necrosis was, however, observed in gray and white matter at weeks 3.

Objective: The study is performed to assure the effect of Sochungyong-tang against the wide-spread syndrome allergic rhinitis. For this purpose, the Sochungyong-tang is administered to the rat, which was induced the allergic rhinitis, then the histological change is observed. And the change of the number of neutrophil and eosinophil is also observed. Methods: The Sprague-Dawley male rats, about 200g of body weight, by Saemtako BIO Korea were divided into normal, control, and experimental group. The rats were adapted under the constant temperature and humidity for a week. The solid feed and the water were provided ad lid during the whole experiment By the Levine & Vaz method, the allergic reaction induced with ovalbumin as antigen by intraperitoneal route. As the Sochungyong-tang is administered, the histological changes of neutrophil, eodinophil, and mucosal findings were observed. Results: 1. Number of neutrophil was significantly decreased in the experimental group as compared with the control group. 2. Number of eosinophil was significantly decreased in the experimental group as compared with the control group. 3. The mucosa and submucosa of the nose in experimental group were appeared as normal histological findings. Conclusion: According to the above results, it is supposed that the Sochungyong -tang has considerable effect on allergic rhinitis.

Microscopical studies of Leucothrix sp. and its histological effect on the gill tissue of Penaeus japanicus have been made. Infection of Leucothrix sp. results in color change of the gills of the shrimp which is mainly due to the brown or black pigments of the filamentous bacteria. Higher degree of the infections makes necrosis and serious histological changes of the gill tissue and this infection affects the respiratory activity of the shrimp.

Histological changes was investigated in the 4 weeks old rat brain using NMDA (N-methyl-D-asparate) which is capable of mediating excitotoxic events. The changes were occured when the injected NMDA solved in PBS was over $1.0{\mu}g/g$(about 90nM). The necrosis of Purkinje cells in cerebellum and the increasement of coloidal plexus cell number were prevalent. The Purkinje cell number of necrosis were increased according to increasement of amount of injected NMDA. In spite of increasement of degenerated Purkinje cell number, differentiation of new Purkinje cell was not identified because total number of Purkinje cell was not changed. The change of cell number was observed in coloidal plexus cell rather than degeneration of cell. About 5 time increasement was occured. This change may cause increasement of cerebrospinal fluid and the makes mophorogy of brain more round than nomal.
